+ Nevertheless, it comes with a tiny handler (lynx/w3m like) that will
+ let you choose wich frame to visit, one by one.
+
+ <li> <i>Dillo</i> has <b><font color="#a22222">context
+ sensitive menus</font></b> using the
+ right mouse button (available on pages, links, images, the Back
+ and Forward buttons, and bug meter).
+
+ <li> Some of the functions in <i>Dillo</i> are handled by independent

+ nothing happens when keys are pressed, try
+ <b> <font color="#a22222">focussing</font></b> your <i>Dillo</i> main
+ window, first, by clicking it (not on any link!:)).
+
+ <li>You can use the space key as PgDn, and {'b' | 'B'} as PgUp.</li>
+ <li> Same way, you can use "<b>,</b>" and "<b>.</b>" as shortcuts for
+ forward and backward buttons (mnemonic: those
+ keys are usually labeled "<" and ">").
+ <li> Ctrl+B and "<b>;</b>" serve as shortcuts for bookmarks.
+
+ <li> Whenever you feel like customizing your <i>Dillo</i> browser or are
+ somewhat unhappy with the way it looks or acts, you might want to
+ check your <b><font color="#a22222">dillorc</font></b> file (if you
+ don't have a copy of it on your ~/.dillo/ directory, get it
+ <a href='dillorc.dillo1.html'>here</a>).
+ It holds quite an amount of
+ options on how to configure appearance and behaviour of the
+ <i>D</i>. This file is very well commented, so you won't feel lost
+ moving around in there.
+
+ <li> Clicking the "Reload" button always will request an end-to-end reload
+ of the site currently viewed, but it will *not* reload embedded
+ images during this process.
+
+ <li> Dialogs can be closed with the ESC key.
+
+ <li> Following the desires of modern desktop users, <i>Dillo</i> also
+ features removable control panels, so you are able to rip the main
+ menu, the URI window and the navigation bar out of the program main
+ window (by dragging them from the leftmost part) and place them
+ wherever you want on your desktop.
+ <li> The whole window area can be used to display the pages. Just
+ click on the lower right corner icon, or double-click
+ on an empty area!
